I have come to an empty place
To the wilderness of my soul
The selfish life that I once embraced
Seldom satisfies me anymore
I have been tried, I have been tested
Now, I know the only way for me;
Is to follow after God's own heart
After God's own heart
How I long to be want He wants me to be
After God's own heart
No other love means so much to me,
So, I will follow after God's own heart
I will tell of His faithfullness;
How He carried my iniquity
I will sing of His holiness;
That demands a life of purity
I must obey, I must be broken
If this world is ever going to see;
(Oh) a man after God's own heart
After God's own heart
How I long to be what he wants me to be
After God's own heart
No other love means so much to me
I will follow after God's own heart
There's no shadow of turning;
As I head straight for Him
Oh, His calling is burning;
I will follow. I will follow
After God's own heart
How I long to be what He wants me to be
After God's own heart
Howmy soul desires to be
After God's own heart
No other love means so much to me
So, I will follow after God's own heart
